Promises

Hang on to life's promises, promises

You ask me what I'm after
I want nothing at all from you
Just wanna sit back and talk for a while
Find out what you've been up to

You smile and rip my world apart
I'm waiting for the phone to ring
I hope we'll solve this mystery
Cause we are only a plain thing

Hang on to life's promises
Hang on to life's promises
We hang on
Hang on, hang on, hang on

Hang on to life's promises desperately
Hang on to life's promises desperately
We hang on, we hang on
Hang on, hang on, hang on

We hang on to life's promises so deperately
We're waiting for the phone to ring
As we're looking for dough among the trash
Advance is on future's little wings

Now you ask me what I'm after
I want nothing at all, nothing at all, not a thing
Just hope you'll solve this mystery
Cause we are only a plain thing

Hang on to life's promises
Hang on to life's promises
We hang on
Hang on, hang on, hang on

Hang on to life's promises desperately
We hang on to life's promises desperately
We hang on, we hang on
Hang on, hang on, hang on

My babe is dressed in black
Black shirt, black jeans
I'm wearing warlocks again
I guess you know what that means
She's got me restless and running
And willing to score
I've got my hands on the wheel
I'm gonna beg her for more
You know she's tall, she's foreign
She burns and we touch
You'll see me sweat or confess
Because I want her so much
So let's go, that's a promise
The smell of her skin
Watch you dance, dance
We'll never give in
Watch you dance, dance
We'll never give in

We hang on to life's promises desperately
Hang on to life's promises desperately
We hang on, we hang on
We hang in, we hang in
Hang on, hang on, hang on

Hang on to life's promises desperately
We hang on to life's promises desperately
We hang on, we hang on
We hang in, we hang in

Hang on to life's promises
Hang on to life's promises

Hang on to life's promises
Hang on to life's promises

Hang on to life's promises
Hang on to life's promises
